⭐UPDATED God Tier List 2022| Hades

Athena is probably the single best god for fighting bosses and specifically Hades

I was doing a Stygius run earlier with the hammer upgrade that lets you slash nonstop and he just couldn't hit me 😂

Id put Aphrodite and Dionysus above Ares. The Doom procs too slowly to be useful and blades are yoo hard to aim

Awful music

blud really waited the whole video to scroll up and show the new teir💀🗿

My favorite run is getting ares, zeus, aphrodite, athena, and dionysus. My strat is being a FRICKING TANK and using my revenge boons to melt hades while i use dionysus to heal before every zone thing

half of aphrodite's duo boons are aspect defining. smoldering air that lets you rack up crazy damage on any aspect that lets you get in close with zeus, heart rend for any 1-2 punch combos with artemis, low tolerance & curse of longing that punch up doom & hangover effects. her cast is also one of the most powerful in the game, making her a viable pick for any cast build; esp considering aformentioned duo's

You massivly undervalued Demeter. You can get a boon that adds decay to chilled enemies as long as they are only enemy on the field (So any boss fight) or the boon that upgrades your boons rarity to heroic after 9 encounters.

I've fallen into abit of a bad habit lately of always taking Aphrodite then Artemis and Dionysus for the extra crit chance and hangover stacks.

The combo works well with alot of aspects but i need to shake my game up a little...

Legendary chaos boons still give death defiances if you haven't lost one, unlike with athena boons

Dionysus in B? Honestly I feel like he could go into S very easily.

His single boons can do literally anything. Damage, Defence, Cast, Special, Healing, but where he gets BUSTED is his duo’s. He pairs well with Artemis, Aphrodite, Zeus, Ares, everybody. Splitting headache, low tolerance and curse of nausea are absolutely broken with the right setup with the shield of Zeus and the Chiron bow.

have you considered, though: Artemis Best Girl

Divine Dash alone puts Athena in S tier. By far the best boon of the game.

Dionysus is a A or higher, if you hit Strong drink or evolve his Trippy Shot

Artemis is DPS for the cautious. Athena is DPS for the tactical. Aphrodite is DPS for the oafish.

u officially included vhaos just to exclude him again

Definitely agree on chaos! I just finished the prophecy of using all the different mirror picks, to get more titan blood. I did like 9-10 of the "opposite" picks at once, just to clear them up quickly. And getting that extra DD, when you have stubborn defiance, and using a bunch of unfamiliar things (1st time trying most of them at all. Ruthless reflex, golden touch, stygian soul, etc); anyways, Chaos was literally a life saver lol.
Not to mention the extra cast, and the insane damage output... best pick up all the time, UNLESS you're in a bad spot to deal with the curse.

Poseidon is personally my least favorite. Knock away powers are terrible for close range weapons, especially fighting enemies in the middle of an open area, I choose him mostly to farm gems

Before Hades 2 comes out you should consider a well of Charon tier list list.

Aphrodite is great, keeps hades damage in check, highest base damage boons, easy procs of privileged status. Also has even more damage reduction and extra healing if needed. Ares has extra damage after death defiance which can carry vs em4 hades.

Aphrodites Crush shot with hera bow is absolutely broken prob one of the most OP builds

Helpful list!

What is the song in the background? I cant quite place it

Athena gets in S just for divine dash alone lmao

If hades had new expansion or DLC , it would be cool if they did the Titans escaped and zagreus had to go murder them ! Getting helped from New Gods and heros of the underworld ! Blood and darkness ... Maybe Cerberus , Lernie the hydra could come to help out or some new God calls . Itll be a great add on leading into the Hades 2 game thats introducing a new character to play ...

You mentioned that killing strike from Demeter, which is great, but one of her boons that I really enjoy is killing freeze, basically around 20 damage per second if every enemy is afflicted with chill. Great for bosses, and if you've got Dionysus boons on top of that the enemies just start melting like butter

I enjoyed the video. I definitely agreed with some and disagree with others. But that’s what makes the game so great. You can stack your boons to how you play. Like if I play with my girlfriend. We have to choose different boons. Because she has a slightly different fighting style then me. So even if I didn’t agree with a placement of a god. I can understand why you would rank your gods differently than I would. Great Video 👍

Side hustle best boon for me

Get it, God-tier?

The Demeter/Athena duo Stubborn Roots got me my first three wins, so I love Demeter. Lasers, deflect dash, and (circumstantially) infinite life 👍🏼👍🏼

Interesting to see Demeter in b tier, personally I try to stay away from her. The slow down is nice but I don't really like a lot of her boons especially her cast.

I’m about 16 heat with most weapons at this point, and I’ll say the two gods that I criminally underrated early-on were Demeter and Dio.

Dio is tricky to put on everything for hangover/trippy shot, but if I see him early on, getting Strong Drink is nuts. Never sad to see an early Dio for that alone.

Demeter is similar in that outside of some of her more janky builds with cast/chill, she is just an all around good “support” champ. Nourished Soul, Ravenous Will, Rare Crop, and even Snow Burst are all really good.

Shows how well designed they really made all the gods.

Nothing is best or fav. in my opinion. Each god is best with the right aspect and the right weapon.
Best build with boon:
1) Aspect of eris + zeus or artemis attack + no reload hammer.
2) Aspect of rama + aphrodite attack + dionysis or ares special + (+4 spl) hammer.
3) Aspect of lucifer + zeus or demeter attack + ares spl. + no reload hammer.
4) Aspect of chiron + Dionysius spl. + (+4 spl.) Hammer + hermes faster special boon.
5) Aspect of beowulf + poseidon special + artemis or ares cast + choas additional cast boon + dash strike armour hammer.
6). Aspect of nemesis + ares attack + artemis special + thrust damage hammer. ( Never ever try to pick the chop attack hammer,...worst ever decision...it'll ruin the aspect attack)

Note : try using pom as much as possible or try choosing persophone's keepsake for every chambers. Gives best results when boons upgraded to the fullest.

We should start a petition to the developer to make a full expansion for this game.

The boon i like the most is lightning rods (the one that deals 70 damage pretty fast near the cast shard on the field)

Aphro is my favorite and least favorite god at the same time.

On one hand, she is practically one of the best champs to have in most builds. She’s an immediate status proc, has the highest base damage multiplier on attacks, and some of the best duos in the game (smoldering air, heart-rend, curse of longing, low tolerance)

On the other hand, her other “support” are pretty bad/boring. Other than more damage against weak, who actually cares about “longer weak duration” or tiny amounts of damage reduction?

I’d probably place her higher on the basis that her duos are always great, but damn, it sucks when she gives you all of the other shitty support boons

For the love of Aphrodite: Smoldering Air makes the bosses a complete joke. Even without Smoldering Air, her Call is insanely helpful.
also gives good %dmg buffs for weapons like Hestia, Arthur, and Bow attack.

My tier list:
S: Artemis, Athena, Zeus
A: Hermes, Chaos, Poseidon, Aphrodite
B: Ares, Demeter (only because of her legendary, and her duos can be fun)
C: Dio (he's just my least favorite for most the weapons I prefer to use)

I absolutely love Dionysus with the Adamant Rail, my personal favorite attack boon right after Zeus’.

I'd move artemis to S because her Crits provide such a stupid amount of damage its insane. Also probably move Demeter to low A because like you said the chill effects are super underrated. The only one I REALLY disagree with is Zeus, I'd have that mofo at like C or D on par with Aphrodite. I hate his boons, he has so many mid boons, its only somewhat decent if you have like 4-5+ of them and even then I'd still just rather stack Artemis boons.

Also Poeisdon with Tidal dash + Razor Shoals is super OP

Honestly the only thing that Poseidon is good with in my opinion is giving gold, I just think that the knockback is just too specific and only ever useful in Styx which is the place that you attain generally because you already had a good build to attain it and is absolutely useless against every boss of the game

Why not use their icons? Idk who these are

I love Dionysus’s boons offensively. Drunken flourish is my go to for higher heats since I can dash around and attack others while previous targets continue to take damage. Esp with spear

to be honest ares, poseidon, and dinoysus funnily enough are my top 3. Doom slaps early and mid game, poseidon giving enhanced loot is so amazing, and dinoysus carries late game with healing at low health (though if we talking how op they are hermes and artemis are some of the best as well as athena)

Wait. So that is why my hera's bow aphrodite cast sometimes felt like it did no damage.
Well, that is weird, i thought that was a good boon xd

Athena is S tier. Always will be. Her dash reflect makes her S tier alone. Even if it’s common rarity

i swear if we don’t see hera, Apollo, Hestia, and Hephaestus in Hades 2 i’m gonna be sooo mad

Artemis is an easy S tier. Her boons almost universally improve every other god, and by herself she can take many mediocre weapon aspects to extreme power. And her duo with Athena raises her own consistent damage output even higher, doing or trolling average damage output. Athena/Artemis/Dionysus cast for example can result in D's level 1 white cast hitting for 500+ damage each with Pressure Points.

The thing about Poseidon is that he is ridiculous at clearing rooms but absolute dogshit against bosses

the cult of the lamb soundtrack its so chill XD

Ares is S tier

Interesting ranking. For me, I will always take Athena, Artemis and Ares, if offered their boons, so I'd place them in my S tier. Deflect is just too good, yo.

Zeus is probably A tier, and especially if I'm using the fists or the rail, my favorite weapons. I won't say no to Poseidon dash or call either.

Hermes is great (extra dash and more speed FTW), but I've never won a run solely from Hermes either, and sometimes I have skipped him if absolutely necessary.

Demeter is fun for chill/slow and I do like the crystal beams, but her boons don't always synergize well. Aphrodite would be better if weak didn't feel so useless tbh. It's better to take 0 damage than to reduce damage, after all.

Dionysus is probably my least used god, although I do love the boon that allows you to fully heal at any fountain drink lol
